Two men were arrested late Saturday night, June 21, 2025, after leading Irving Police on a high-speed chase that ended in a crash in Dallas, followed by a foot pursuit.
At approximately 11:16 p.m., an Irving Police officer observed a red 2016 Nissan Rogue traveling at 100 miles per hour in a 70 mph zone on eastbound E. Airport Freeway at Carl Road. When the officer attempted a traffic stop, the driver fled, leading police into Dallas before crashing the vehicle.
Three men exited the vehicle and fled on foot. Officers quickly apprehended two of the suspects. The third man escaped and remains at large.
The driver was identified as 21-year-old Mcaul Arath Garcia. He was found with $1,600 in cash and five THC vape cartridges totaling 10 grams. The second man, one of the passengers in the vehicle, was identified as 20-year-old Lewin Mauricio Rodriguez-Alvarez. He was found carrying $1,500 in cash, four bags of cocaine totaling 4.2 grams, and one THC vape cartridge containing 2 grams.
Based on the amount of cash found and the packaging of the narcotics, Irving detectives believe both to be engaged in organized crime and delivering controlled substances.
Garcia has beeen charged with Evading Arrest Detention with a Vehicle, Engaging in Organized Criminal Activity, and Manufacture/Delivery of a Controlled Substance PG2 or 2-A between 4 and 400 grams. Garcia has two prior charges in Dallas County for Evading Arrest on Foot and Unlawful Carrying Weapon from 2024. A court hearing for those charges is scheduled for August 27, 2025. With these new charges, he will be facing serious prison time.
Rodriguez-Alvarez was charged with Evading Arrest on Foot, Engaging in Organized Criminal Activity, Manufacture/Delivery of a Controlled Substance PG1 between 4 and 200 grams, and Possession of a Controlled Substance PG2 between 1 and 4 grams. A hold was also requested by Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE), as Rodriguez-Alvarez is an undocumented immigrant.
